  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67_NySgqB2Q&amp;t=1043">17:23</a> &nbsp;5 years later Regis would break Hugh&apos;s record and be the new world record holder for the most hours spent on camera and its kind of prophetic that they would both die in 2020 as well as Alex Trebek <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67_NySgqB2Q&amp;t=1274">21:14</a>.

  At the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67_NySgqB2Q&amp;t=100">1:40</a> mark-- is that Hugh passing the backdrop against which we saw him and Barbara for all those years on 20/20?

  I loved 20/20 when Hugh Downs, Barbara Walters, and the 7 or 8 correspondants that represented this show. I was a nerd, and this was my favorite show bc I was truthfully burned out with antiquated cartoons, couldn&apos;t &nbsp;tolerate the new, controversial cartoons, like The Family Guy and South Park. Sitcoms seemed to repeat the same storylines. I wanted to watch and learn things that were facts.😊❤R.I.P. Barbara and Hugh. Stone Phillips was great on Dateline, before it turned into a &quot;murder&quot; show on NBC.

  WABC-TV made a mistake for nixing the voice over for the opens of this era. Mike Lewis is a bit overrated…blanking on his name…
